Children's Museum of the Lowcountry, Charleston

Children's Museum of the Lowcountry, Charleston

Charleston's latest, greatest, and wackiest museum to hit the town is none other than the Children's Museum of the Lowcountry! It's like a wonderland for kids, from babies who've just learned to drool to 10-year-old mini-adults. This place takes the whole "learning is fun" idea to a whole new level by whisking young explorers away on interactive, out-of-this-world adventures in art, science, and all things smarty-pants.

Children can embark on daring missions like scaling a tower within the Castle, indulging in some wet 'n' wild fun at WaterWise, becoming mural Picasso prodigies, engaging in nail-biting golf ball races down roller coasters, going on a treasure hunt aboard the Pirate Ship, or even exploring the mysteries of a vintage fire truck.

It's a place where kids and their trusty sidekicks (aka parents) can let their imaginations run wild and their problem-solving skills go bonkers. Who knows what brilliant ideas might pop up during a visit here?

And guess what? If your little one is under the ripe old age of 1, they get in for free!

Tip:
Things start to calm down after the clock strikes 1 pm, so if you prefer a quieter, less chaotic adventure and your schedule allows, aim for the afternoon escapade!
